Design/Build Process

CMI recognizes that constructing a new facility for your business can be an intimidating process. We also realize that your expertise lies in running your business, not in the construction business. CMI’s goal is to create a partnership with its clients that allows our construction expertise to interact with your business expertise. The result is a practical, efficient and cost effective project that meets the client’s overall objectives. CMI has the capability of assisting you with your construction project from site selection through completion. A description of available services that CMI can provide is outlined below. You decide what role CMI will undertake, and then CMI will break the project down into several logical steps and begin work. The client is consulted on every step of the process and is given timely updates.

Design

The benefits of direct communication between the owner, architect and contractor throughout the design process assures you of getting a project that meets your needs, budget and schedule. CMI employs two full-time staff architects to help create a design that is not only functional but is also within your budget. Our architects are particularly skilled at developing your thoughts and ideas into a practical, working design that will ultimately provide you with the plans required to construct your new building. Or, if you prefer, they can modify an existing design to fit your specific requirements. With over 300 years of in-house construction experience, CMI can provide invaluable advice during the design process.
